System monitors building stability
Nine 64-channel and two 36-channel SHM systems each contain multiple CompactRIO controllers that directly connect to accelerometers and an external GPS receiver.
Software makes test data easier to process
DIAdem makes it easy to manage, analyse and report on data collected during data acquisition or generated during simulations.
Using the latest advances in LabView, this Express VI encapsulates the functionality of several standard VIs to help engineers dynamically create any report - from summarising manufacturing test results to compiling process statistics - in minutes.
To configure this VI, engineers simply choose their desired options, such as template, content layout and destination, using interactive configuration dialogue boxes that require little or no programming.
Engineers and scientists use this toolkit to quickly generate professional reports containing text, tables, graphs and pictures to effectively communicate their data.
They can populate existing report templates, customise templates as a function of the data and extend the toolkitūs reporting capabilities using standard LabView functionality.
In addition, engineers and scientists can programmatically run and reuse existing Excel macros from LabView to further customise and automate report generation.
The LabView Report Generation Toolkit works with Microsoft Office 97/2000/XP/2003 and LabView 7 Express. Request a free brochure from National Instruments ...
